Q1. The Head Up Display (HUD) is a device allowing the pilot, while still looking outside, to have:
a synthetic view of the instrument procedure.
Q2. The command bars of a flight director are generally represented on an:
ADI (Attitude Director Indicator)
Q3. The essential components of a flight director are : 1- a computer 2- an automatic pilot 3- an autothrottle 4- command bars The combination of correct statements is:
1,4
Q4. Mode “Localizer ARM” active on Flight Director means:
System is armed for localizer approach and coupling will occur upon capturing center line
Q5. The “heading hold” mode is selected on the flight director (FD) with a course to steer of 180°. Your aircraft holds a heading of 160°. The vertical bar of the FD:
is centered if the aircraft is on optimum path to join heading 180°
Q6. The position of a Flight Director command bars:
indicates the manoeuvers to execute, to achieve or maintain a flight situation.
Q7. When the altitude acquisition mode is engaged on a jet transport airplane equipped with autopilot (AP) and auto-throttle (ATS) systems the:
indicated airspeed (IAS) is maintained constant by the autopilot by means of elevator.
Q8. All the last generation aircraft use flight control systems. The Flight Management System (FMS) is the most advanced system ; it can be defined as a:
global 3-D Flight Management System
Q9. For capturing and keeping a preselected magnetic heading, the flight director computer takes into account: 1- track deviation 2- rate of track closure 3- rate of change of track closure 4- wind velocity given by the inertial reference unit. The combination regrouping all the correct statements is:
1,2,3
Q10. Flight Director Information supplied by an FD computer is presented in the form of command bars on the following instrument:
ADI Attitude Display Indicator.
Q11. An aeroplane is equipped with a Flight Director (with crosshair trend bars), heading 270°, in HDG mode (heading hold). A new heading, of 360°, is selected; the vertical trend bar:
deviates to the right and will be centred as soon as you roll the aircraft to the bank angle calculated by the flight director.
Q12. The flight director indicates the:
optimum instantaneous path to reach selected radial.
Q13. The aim of the flight director is to provide information to the pilot:
allowing him to return to a desired path in an optimal way.
Q14. On a modern aircraft, the flight director modes are displayed on the:
upper strip of the PFD (Primary Flight Display).
